Danish-speaking Translator in the Czech Republic

About our client

Our client has a team of 14 people and they just love writing about electronics! Here, they create and publish product texts for major Nordic retailers like Elkjøp, Elgiganten or Gigantti that are part of the family. Thanks to the friendly atmosphere and fresh team spirit it is really easy to fit in with our client. Their working hours are quite flexible, as they are required to be available from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. every day, and they are free to arrange the rest of the work shift to their needs and wishes. Occasionally, they have to stay a bit later to finalize a major product launch, but this is rather exceptional. Therefore, you can easily organize your day and combine work with your personal life. The daily job involves several diverse tasks and can be quite exciting.

What will you do?

• You will creatively translate existing product descriptions and specifications from English to Danish to make sure that their customers in Nordics know what type of product is right for them.
• You will create and update product descriptions for a specific product category (e.g. phones, games, movies) in the Danish language and publish products on their Nordics sites.
• You will add and update product specifications for our online stores in the Nordic as well as prepare and adjust product pictures according to our internal guidelines.
• You will fulfil your potential in new projects.
• You will publish articles and banners for our websites.

What can you learn in the team?

Thanks to working with diverse product types, you will improve your English and Norwegian skills, vocabulary and marketing-oriented language. The job also requires being in close touch with the development, advances and innovations in the technical field. You will learn some basics from online marketing as well as tips and tricks in Adobe Photoshop, but don’t worry—no graphics skills are necessary. You will also learn more about the retail process and what it takes for a product to be delivered from the supplier and purchased by the customer online.

As they also would like the employees to grow personally, they offer various technical and soft skill training such as:

• Presentation skills
• Excel training
• Assertiveness
• SEO, SEM, Content marketing

and many more, all delivered by fantastic internal and external trainers. Or you can even become one of them.

Why work in Brno - Czech republic?

Living in Brno is a bit like an all-you-can-eat buffet. There's something in here for everybody. The historical city centre may be on the small side, but this also puts all the major landmarks and places of interest within walking distance of each other. In fact, many of our colleagues choose to walk to the office every day just because it is so convenient, even though the public transport network is well developed and widely used as well. As a university and college city, Brno offers vibrant nightlife throughout the year, and there are cafés, pubs, clubs and music halls just about everywhere, with new ones popping up as soon as the old ones move out. If nightlife is not your thing, there are sports venues aplenty as well as parks, public forests and bike trails to enjoy. Should you run out of things that Brno can offer to you (unlikely as that may be), just hop on a train or a bus and explore the outskirts of the city with many smaller towns, villages, vineyards, folk festivals and more. And with Vienna, Bratislava and Prague being just around two hours travel time away, the only limit to your voyages is your imagination.

Now you’re probably wondering what they will expect from you? Well…

• Native Danish language—good formulation skills, perfect grammar
• Good level of English
• Knowledge or interest in electronics is a plus
• Marketing approach and ability to write texts that inspire customers to make a purchase
• Structured, efficient and independent
• Prior knowledge of marketing or copywriting is not required but a significant advantage
• Previous experience with customer electronics business or e-commerce (stores, online stores) is an advantage, but not a must
